Is sync via Dropbox is still safe?
I got very worried the article below: https://blog.agilebits.com/2015/10/19/when-a-leak-isnt-a-leak/
I am using 1Password for IOS on iPhone and iPad sync with Dropbox.
I've a whole list of passwords and I do not want to be leaked:(
I have only one questions whether I should change the sync method from Dropbox to something else?
Is sync via iCloud is more safer than Dropbox? How should we undestand sentence: If you use only 1Password for iOS, sync with iCloud?
Thank you for your help.

Your passwords are safe. There is no leak there.
Everything is fairly safe, as Dropbox would have to be breached in order for an attacker to get any info at all.
But if Dropbox or your computer was attacked, the attacker could get hold of the URL for any sites you had a password for. You might not care about this, or you might want even the sites you visit to be kept secret.
Personally, I feel that 1Password Anywhere is a useful safety net that would be lost if I changed format, so I am sticking with the current approach.
